You had me at “I have no idea”. You sealed the deal when you elaborated “this Theological concept came along thousands of years after Moses died.” Then you began to speculate about what Moses would believe. You’re sure Moses would agree with you. I’m sure Moses would agree with Jesus. Jesus...

Thanks. What does it matter? Random man, to Jesus - “Hey, Jesus. My God isn’t your God.” Jesus, to random man - “What does it matter?” Random man, to Jesus - “It doesn’t matter.” Jesus, to random man -

I tested the spirit of the trinitarian.

”1. The one God. (a) theos is the most frequent designation of God in the NT. Belief in the one, only and unique God (Matt. 23:9; Rom. 3:30; 1 Cor. 8:4,6; Gal. 3:20; 1 Tim. 2:5; Jas. 2:19) is an established part of Christian tradition. Jesus himself made the fundamental confession of Jud. his...

Jesus himself has a God. His God is only one person. Jesus isn’t a trinitarian. Jesus is a non-trinitarian, and his God is the same God who is Moses’ God. Let’s ask @Taken’s excellent question: What does it matter?

What do you say to the trinitarian who says “Three is not enough”? and what does it matter?

What does it matter to you that you don’t believe about God what Moses believed about God? The positive I see in your position is that you allow Moses to be what he is - a non-trinitarian. That’s better than turning Moses into something he isn’t - a trinitarian.

“… we recognize the Son as visible by reason of the dispensation of His derived existence;” (Tertullian, Against Praxeas, Chapter 14)

Not his body; his person.

CE doesn’t belong to the atheists. Frequent question: Why does the common era begin with the birth of Jesus?

There are two Lords - The Lord God (Yahweh) and the Lord Christ (Jesus of Nazareth). “Yahweh said to my lord, …” (Psalm 110:1).

From The Inn of the Sixth Happiness. I was reminded of it when I read a tweet over dinner from Today In Christian History - “#OTD October 14, 1932 Gladys Aylward sails from Liverpool bent on bringing the gospel to China despite being told by mission boards she is not fit for the task. Her...

I finished reading On the Resurrection of the Flesh and, this morning, Ad Martyras. In hindsight, I’m glad I decided to read them in this order. Tertullian offers comfort and encouragement to “Blessed Martyrs Designate” - imprisoned Christians, in approximately 197 A.D. Having his arguments on...

Must be the static. (AM).

“No static at all, (no static, no static at all) FM (no static at all)” (Steely Dan, “FM”)

AM or FM?

It should. The posts are a little long, but not too long. I think people will read them. (I did, and I typically don’t read, write or respond to long posts.) What they do with what they read is, as always, up to them. You put a lot of thought into it. Fwiw, I commend you for your effort.

I have issues with all denominations, including the one which licenses me. Some issues are more important than others. God has appointed a man to judge. I think it’s wise to leave the matter in that man’s hands. It’s a semi-free country. I’ve asked him to tell me what he believes and why he...

This is the type of thread / subject matter that grabs my attention. I’ve been posting on internet discussion forums since the mid-90’s. To the best of my recollection, this is the first OP I’ve seen that consists of 21 posts. You covered a LOT of ground.

Whatever it was, the past is the past. What about the future? Will everyone speak one language again? Will everyone speak the universal language of the past? Will everyone be multi-lingual? Will everyone speak an entirely new, perhaps previously unknown to man, language? I don’t know. I know...
